PT, the PlayStation 4’s demo for the upcoming Silent Hill game first revealed at Gamescom, has been downloaded over a million times, Sony revealed at its pre-TGS press conference.

Of course, part of the mystery of PT, at least initially, was that it was randomly uploaded to PSN during Sony's Gamescom press conference, though it wasn't clear that it had anything to do with Silent Hill (or Hills, plural, as the title of Kojima's upcoming says). Its popularity likely ramped up when everyone heard about its Silent Hill connection, as well as the fact that that Guillermo del Toro is collaborating with Kojima on the project.

The other interesting feature of PT is that it's incredibly difficult. Notoriously so, even. If you're having trouble with that infamous final puzzle, in particular, we may be able to help you out. In the meantime, steel yourself, because Hideo Kojima wants you to **** your pants while playing Silent Hills. You've been warned.
